A groundwater extraction well is installed in an aquifer (hydraulic conductivity = 2,000 gpd/ft2, gradient = 0.01, and aquifer thickness = 50 ft). The design pumping rate is 60 gpm. Delineate the capture zone of this recovery well by specifying the following characteristic distances of the capture zone: A) the side-stream distance from the well to the envelop of the capture zone at the line of the pumping well, B) the down-stream distance from the well to stagnation point of...

A well is constructed in a confined aquifer. The aquifer has a uniform thickness of 50 ft overlain by a aquitard and the bottom is 115 ft below ground surface (bgs). A pumping test weas used to determine the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer. The initial piezometric (potentiometric) surface of the confined aquifer was 49 ft bgs at the pumping well and the observation wells. After water was pumped at a rate of 0.46 cu ft/sec for several days, the...

A contaminated plume is found having capture zone type curve
Q/BU = 2000 m. U is the regional groundwater velocity, Q is pumping
rate and B is the aquifer thickness. The aquifer also has a
hydraulic conductivity of 3 × 10-5 cm/sec, a hydraulic gradient of
0.003 and a storavity of 0.005. The aquifer is 30 m thick. The
diameter of the well is 10 inch and the equation for
non-equilibrium condition is:

1) In a leaky confined aquifer, estimate how far from a well pumping at 175 m3/day a steady state drawdown of 0.4 m will be observed. Assume the aquifer is 10 m thick with a horizontal hydraulic conductivity of 7 m/day, the K' is 1 m/day and the b' is 1 m thick, the storativity of the aquifer, S, is 0.02. 2) For the conditions in problem 1, estimate the drawdown at this location after 15 minutes. 3) At the...

Question 5: (25 marks) A fully penetrating pumping well is located in a confined aquifer that can be considered to have an infinite extent in all directions. There is no recharge to the aquifer and no other pumping wells in the area. There are two observation wells located at 100 and 500 m, respectively, from the pumping wells. The aquifer and the pumping well have the following properties: Depth to top of aquifer: 50 m Aquifer thickness: 5 m Aquifer...

An engineer has been asked to investigate illegal pumping of groundwater from an unconfined aquifer. The maximum withdrawal rate for the well has been set by the State Water Resources Board at 30,000 ft/day. The water table far from the well is 20 f below the surface. The depth to the confining bed is 50 ft. Two observation wells have been installed near the pumping well to assess the groundwater withdrawal rate. The first well is located 100 ft from...

A well is pumping near a barrier boundary at a rate of 0.05 m3/s
from a confined aquifer 20 m thick. The hydraulic conductivity of
the aquifer is 5 x 10-4 m/s, and its storativity is 4 x 10-5.
Determine the drawdown in the observation well after 30 hours of
continuous pumping. What is the fraction of the drawdown
attributable to the barrier boundary?

The following values for a confined aquifer are measured from the ground surface: depth to piezometric level before pumping = 25 ft depth to top of aquifer = 75 ft depth to bottom of aquifer = 125 ft. A 24-inch diameter well is driven to the bottom of the aquifer an pumped at 500 gpm until steady state conditions are attained. The drawdown at an observation well 50 ft from the pumping well is 10 ft and the drawdown at...
